Teak
The Teak category features furniture made from solid wood from slow-growing tropical trees. Teak is used for its dimensional stability, natural moisture resistance and high density. Its color is warm, ranging from golden to dark brown, with tight and sometimes irregular grain patterns. It is used for tops, structures, frames and facades. This wood is suitable for indoor and covered outdoor applications, provided its maintenance requirements are met. read more >

Teak: wood properties and furniture applications
Teak is a dense, naturally rot-resistant tropical wood, mainly from Southeast Asia. It is valued in furniture for its dimensional stability: it deforms little with variations in humidity and temperature. Its natural oil content makes it resistant to light stains, moisture and parasites. Used in slats, panels or solid blocks, it creates solid structures suitable for everyday use. Teak is often left unfinished, oiled or finely sanded, allowing its original color and visible fibers to be expressed without the need for a covering varnish.
Visual reading and material associations
Visually, teak presents a spectrum of hues ranging from golden brown to deeper brown, sometimes crossed by dark reflections. The density of the grain varies according to the cut and origin of the wood. It offers a slightly satin surface without excessive gloss, even with an oiled finish. In interior design, teak combines with mineral materials such as marble or ceramics, but also with neutral textiles (linen, thick cotton) and fine metal structures. It acts as a visual point of balance, particularly suited to rooms where the material needs to stabilize an ensemble (sideboards, tables, low furniture).
Uses, maintenance and longevity
Teak is suited to indoor uses exposed to moderate climatic variations. It is also used for sheltered outdoor applications (covered terraces, verandas), but then requires regular maintenance. Untreated, its surface takes on a grayish hue over time. Annual maintenance with a specific oil will preserve its original color. Indoors, a simple dusting followed by a slightly damp cloth is all that's needed to maintain the surface appearance. This wood is stable over the long term, provided you follow gentle cleaning cycles without water saturation.
The *Teck* category includes furniture where the material plays a full part in the function and balance of the object. Wood is visible, visually active, but without excess. Its use relies on precise knowledge of exposure conditions and measured integration into space.
